Thanks for your answers, which both show me that I can override the default globally and per item. I guess that not seeing both together won't be such a problem (I'll see with usage but...) as we can have reports quickly generated. Thank you very much! Though, the only *remaining nice feature* would maybe be the following: add= a letter indicating what's the meaning of the total. For example, we could see `T 02:51 (Reading Emails)' for a total limited to *today* and `M 02:51 (Reading Emails)' for a total limited to *monthly*. What do you think of that? Otherwise, it becomes difficult to distinguish between locally overridden totals and the global default value...
